WHEN ELVIS MET NIXON
Yesterday on WBRE TV’s Pa Live Valerie Tysanner and I talked about the time when Elvis Presley decided to meet President Nixon. Since Elvis had a birthday yesterday, (he would be 81) and Nixon had one today (he would be 103) I thought this would be a good time to commemorate the event. Here’s the video from yesterday:

As I mentioned on WBRE TV, there is a movie coming out this spring from Amazon starring Kevin Spacey and Colin Hanks. Here is the trailer:

A few years ago my good friend Gort 42 linked Elvis not with a famous President but perhaps the most talented ballplayer who ever lived. The Babe. See the Babe and Elvis died on the same day, August 16th. Gort thought it should be a national holiday. Here’s his link: http://gort42.blogspot.com/2010/08/happy-babe-elvis-day.html
The Babe could also be linked with Ronald Reagan too because they both share the same birthday, February 6th.
Also during yesterday's show I referenced two songs that Elvis did after his comeback in 1968 that were more socially aware than some of his other hits. Everyone knew about "In The Ghetto" but here is the other song that might be less familiar but I think more powerful.

Hey Dave, I'm dying to see that movie.
As for your stint on Pa Live, you guys seem to work very well together. Good chemistry and timing.
Love that Dead tie too.

As always David, an outstanding job. You belong in the media, be it radio or TV, how about your own TV talk show? That would be novel and I dare say successful.
